Port card descriptions
• CS-684, E2-684 — Connects up to six analog loop-start CO lines, eight ESI digital phones, and four
analog station ports. The CO line ports support standard CO and Centrex loop-start lines (but not groundstart CO lines). The analog ports provide a standard 24-volt, two-wire connection to fax machines,
courtesy phones, modems, etc. Only one device can be connected to each analog station port. This card
uses 12 station ports and six CO ports.
• CS-612, E2-612 — Provides circuits to connect up to six analog loop-start CO lines and 12 ESI digital
phones. Ground-start CO lines are not supported. This card uses 12 station ports and six CO ports.
• CS-6ALC, ESI-6ALC — Similar to the CS-612 and E2-612, but connects only up to six analog loop-start
CO lines (and no stations).
• E2-A41 — Connects up to four analog devices (only), such as fax machines and cordless phones. This card
uses four station ports and no CO ports. Each port provides a standard 24-volt, two-wire phone
connection. Only one analog device can be connected to each port.
• CS-A12, E2-A12 — Connects up to 12 analog devices (only), such as fax machines and cordless phones.
This card uses 12 station ports and no CO ports. Each port provides a standard 24-volt, two-wire phone
connection. Only one analog device can be connected to each port.
• CS-D12, E2-D12 — Connects up to 12 ESI digital phones (only). This card uses 12 station ports and
no CO ports.
• CS-DLC12, E2-DLC12 (Digital Line Card) — Provides either a T1 interface supporting 24 DS0 channels
and 12 digital stations or an ISDN PRI interface supporting 23 B (bearer) channels, one D (datalink)
channel, and 12 digital stations.
A jumper on this card must be plugged onto pins 7 and 8 of J3 to enable ISDN PRI functions. Any
(or all) of the available channels of the T1/PRI span (24 on T1, 23 on PRI) can be assigned, and the card
supports loop-start, ground-start, E&M and DNIS/DID trunk types with immediate, wink-start or dial-tonestart signaling. This card is equipped with a built-in CSU that can be connected directly to a network
interface unit, SmartJack, or ISDN PRI. Up to 12 ESi digital phones can be connected to the card.
All 24 CO ports are allocated (regardless of whether they are assigned or used).
• CS-DLC, ESI-DLC — Similar to the CS-DLC12 and E2-DLC12, but supports only a T1 or PRI circuit (and
no phones).
• CS-IVC, IVC (Intelligent VoIP Card) — Supports standards-compliant IP telephony service and features,
including VoIP to the desktop and Esi-Link. It features highly configurable DSP technology that manages
the flow of traffic among the port cards and converts IP packets into PCM (pulse-code modulation) traffic
®
for transmission over the PSTN. The physical connection is a 10/100Base-T, RJ-45 Ethernet interface
that allows the system to connect to an IP-based local area network (LAN).
The IVC is offered in three versions:
2
• IVC 24R — Provides 24 IP stations (local or remote).
• IVC 24EL — Provides 24 channels for Esi-Link.
• IVC 12R12EL — Provides 12 IP stations (local or remote) and 12 Esi-Link channels; does not
support SIP phones.
Each ESI Communications Server model has a specific maximum of each type of IVC (see the table
on page A.4). The system automatically designates the first IVC station card (lowest-numbered slot) as
the primary IVC — which acts as the “master” that, when an IP Phone first comes on line, identifies the
IVC station card to which the ESI IP phone connects (IVC Esi-Link cards are excluded from this
operation). Licensing is required to support each ESI IP phone or SIP phone. The following table shows
the maximum number of ESI IP phones and Esi-Link channels for each system.

ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
Overview
• SL-DLC82 — (ESI-50 only.) Provides an ISDN PRI interface supporting 23 B (bearer) channels, one D
(datalink) channel, eight digital stations, and two analog devices.
A jumper on this card must be plugged onto pins 7 and 8 of J3 to enable ISDN PRI functions.
Any (or all) of the 23 available channels of the PRI span can be assigned, and the card supports loop-start,
ground-start, E&M and DNIS/DID trunk types with immediate, wink-start or dial-tone-start signaling.
This card is equipped with a built-in CSU that can be connected directly to a network interface unit,
SmartJack, or ISDN PRI. Up to eight ESI digital phones and up to two analog phones can be connected
to the card. All 24 CO ports are allocated (regardless of whether they are assigned or used).
• 482 — (ESI-50 [and ESI-50L] only.1) Provides circuits to connect up to four loop-start CO lines, eight ESI
digital phones, and two analog station ports. The CO line ports support standard CO and Centrex loopstart lines; ground-start CO lines are not supported. Only one analog device can be connected to each
analog station port. This card uses 10 station ports and four CO ports when installed.
Notes: The main board comes in a four-line, eight-digital station, two-analog port configuration. You can add
three 482 port cards on an ESI-50. Therefore, the system can have the following configurations.
— 4 8 2: Base Cabinet (main board only)
— 8 16 4: Base Cabinet with one additional 482 port card.
— 12 24 6: Base Cabinet with one additional 482 port card and an Expansion Cabinet
with one 482 port card.
— 16 32 8: Base Cabinet with one additional 482 port card and an Expansion Cabinet with
two 482 port cards.
The maximum ESI-50 configuration — if an SL-DLC82 is used in slot 2 and the built-in IVC (see next
item) uses all 12 local IP channels — is 35 x 44 x 8.
• SL-IVC 12 — (ESI-50 only.) The ESI-50’s built-in SL-IVC 12 can support up to 12 IP channels, which support
up to 12 local IP stations, or up to eight remote IP channels. Local IP, remote IP, and Esi-Link channels
can be used in various combinations, which are activated in blocks of four for local IP, singles for remote IP,
and blocks of four for Esi-Link. Here is an example of some possible IVC 12 channel combinations:
–
–
–
–
Eight all Esi-Link.
12 all local IP.
Eight Esi-Link, four local IP.
Four Esi-Link, four local IP, four remote IP.
Important: The SL-IVC 12 is part of the ESI-50 main board; it is not available as an add-on port card.
• CS-SIP24 — Provides 24 SIP trunk ports and supports ESI Mobile Messaging delivery of .WAV files to
e-mail addresses.
• CS-SIP8 — Provides eight SIP trunk ports and supports ESI Mobile Messaging delivery of .WAV files to

ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
Overview
Hot-swap operations
“CS” port cards — full-sized cards for use on only the ESI-1000, ESI-600, and ESI-200 — have built-in
hot-swap capability, allowing you to replace them while the system is powered-up.
For hot-swap capability, an “E2” port card must be mounted onto a “Hot Swap” Port Card Adapter (ESI part
#5000-0462) prior to being installed on the ESI-1000, ESI-600, or ESI-200. However, installing a new port
card requires power-cycling the system to allow it to recognize the new card.
The following rules apply to hot-swap operations on ESI Communications Servers:
• The ESI-100 and ESI-50 do not support hot-swapping; this capability is available on only the ESI-1000,
ESI-600, and ESI-200.
• When you replace a port card with a new one, the system will detect the port card type.
• If the new port card’s type is different than that of the original port card, the newly installed port card
won’t come on-line.
• If the new port card’s type is the same as that of the original port card, the system will automatically
upload software to the new port card. This upload process can take from four minutes to one hour,
depending on the type of port card and how busy the system is at the time.
For details, refer to the procedure in “About replacing port cards,” page F.4.
NSP
Built into the main board, the NSP (Network Services Processor) serves as a bridge between an Ethernet-based
network and the ESI Communications Server. Using TCP/IP, the NSP communicates directly with specific PC
applications for maintenance of, and integration with, the ESI system. The NSP manages optional features such as
VIP and phone control via TAPI PC applications; it also provides access to not only maintenance and administration
(through use of ESI System Programmer software) but also an Installer-selectable SMDR interface.
The NSP hardware interface consists of a dedicated Ethernet port. Its external RJ-45 jack provides a
10/100Base-T connection to the LAN. The NSP consumes no call-processing ports.
Note: The ESI-50 provides one Ethernet port for access to the NSP and built-in IVC12.

Features and support for standards
An ESI desktop IP phone looks and works like a regular digital phone as described on page B.1, but connects
from within the local premises via an IP local area network (LAN) rather than twisted-pair cabling. If used onpremises, an ESI IP phone derives its operating power directly over the LAN from Power over Ethernet
(PoE). If used remotely, an ESI desktop IP phone connects to the cabinet from a remote location via an IP
network (either a WAN or the public Internet). Each ESI desktop IP phone derives its power from an individual
Power over Ethernet (PoE) adapter. An ESI desktop IP phone supports the following features and standards:
•
•
•
•
IEEE 802.3af Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Power via PoE.
Can be configured for either local or remote (off-site) operation.
Uses a G.711 codec in its “local” mode of operation and a G.726 codec in its “remote” mode. In G.711
mode, the transfer rate is 206 Kbps; in G.726 mode, the transfer rate is 90 Kbps.
• Can use DHCP1 to obtain an IP address:
– In “local” operation, DHCP can be enabled or disabled2 for the ESI desktop IP phones on each IVC.
Alternatively, a “static” IP address may be assigned by the Installer (in Function 31; see the ESI
Communications Servers Programming Manual, ESI document #0450-1050).
– In “remote” operation, an ESI desktop IP phone automatically uses DHCP to obtain an IP address and
default gateway.
(Continued)

Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol, an IP standard described in RFC 2131 (http://www.ietf.org/rfc/rfc2131.txt).
Default setting for DHCP is disabled.

• Complies with IEEE 802.1q and 802.1p (VLAN) Layer 2 switching and prioritization.
• Complies with differentiated services (DiffServ; RFC 2475) Layer 3 Quality of Service (QoS)
implementations.
Notes: If connecting an ESI desktop IP phone to a Power over Ethernet source, the PoE cable must be connected
to the jack labeled NETWORK on the base of the phone. The jack labeled PC does NOT support or provide
Power over Ethernet.
ESI has tested each ESI desktop IP phone with several Power over Ethernet sources. For a current list of
tested devices, see www.esi-estech.com/Resellers/PoE.
®
Important: None of the IP phones listed in this section will work with ESI’s legacy IP E-Class or IVX systems. Similarly,
previous IP Feature Phone models (including the Remote IP Feature Phone) don’t work with ESI
Communications Servers but, instead, are intended for use with only IP E-Class and appropriate, IP-enabled
IVX systems.
ESI Cordless Handsets
ESI Communications Servers also support ESI’s digital, Local IP, and Remote IP Cordless Handsets — both
the Cordless Handset II and the original ESI Cordless Handset models.
Cordless Handset II
The ESI Cordless Handset II includes seven familiar fixed feature keys, eight programmable feature keys, a
speakerphone, and a headset jack. The Base Station for the ESI Digital Cordless Handset II uses a standard
line cord and is line-powered; and the Base Station for each ESI IP Cordless Handset II (Local IP or Remote
IP) uses Ethernet cabling, and receives (and requires) Power over Ethernet (PoE). The ESI Remote IP
Cordless Handset II base station also includes a jack into which the user can plug an analog CO line. This
gives the home-based teleworker the convenience of using both home and business lines with the ESI
Remote IP Cordless Handset II. Each ESI Cordless Handset II model employs advanced DECT 6.0
technology which, as compared to the original ESI Cordless Handsets, allows more secure communications
and — through the use of one or more optional ESI Cordless Handset II Repeaters — greater range.
Original Cordless Handsets
The original ESI Cordless Handsets come in two sizes — small and large — and each includes four familiar
fixed feature keys, four programmable feature keys, and a headset jack. The Base Station for each ESI digital
Cordless Handset uses a standard line cord and is line-powered; and the Base Station for each ESI IP
Cordless Handset uses Ethernet cabling and receives (and requires) Power over Ethernet (PoE). The ESI
Remote IP Cordless Handset base station also includes a jack into which the user can plug an analog CO
line. This gives the home-based teleworker the convenience of using both home and business lines with the
ESI Remote IP Cordless Handset.
1
Important: Each ESI IP phone draws up to 7.25 watts at 48 volts DC; therefore, each advertises itself to a Power over
Ethernet switch as a Class 3 device per the 802.3af standard. Most PoE switches adhering to this standard will
provide up to 12.5 watts for each Class 3 device.
1
An ESI desktop IP phone’s power consumption takes into account an optional 60-Key Expansion Console.
B.3

Phones
Expansion Consoles
The 60-Key Expansion Console gives a designated user 60 additional programmable feature keys. It is
supported by the ESI 60 (digital or IP models), ESI 40 (digital or IP models), and 48-Key Feature Phone (digital
or IP models). The Expansion Console is connected to its host ESI phone via a special cable (provided) and
doesn’t require a separate station port of its own. Additionally, it may be connected to a 60-Key Second
Expansion Console via a special cable (provided with the 60-Key Second Expansion Console) so that one
phone can have a total of 120 programmable feature keys in addition to its own complement of such keys.
Each ESI Communications Server has a maximum number of stations that can have one or two Expansion
Consoles (60-Key and 60-Key Second) installed in a fully configured system:

Note: Regardless of ESI Communications Server model, a Base Cabinet can support a maximum of eight
Expansion Consoles, and each Expansion Cabinet can support a maximum of 24 Expansion Consoles.
Phone overlays
Each ESI phone comes with one overlay for the programmable feature keys. To order additional overlays, visit
™
the DESI Web site, www.desi.com. While there, you may also want to download the free Windows-based
software, DESI Lite, which allows you to print on the overlays. For assistance with DESI products, contact DESI
(the DESI Web site contains contact information).
Tip: Remember that ESI System Programmer software, available from www.esi-estech.com/Resellers, also
lets you print on the overlays as well as perform many other programming tasks.
VIP Softphone
VIP Softphone integrates the features of VIP Professional and an ESI desktop IP phone into a PC-based,
full-audio phone. With the appropriate license, VIP Softphone can be configured for use locally or remotely.
This product requires a third-party USB headset.
Note: For details, see the VIP Product Overview (ESI document #0450-0608) and the VIP Setup and User’s Guide
(ESI document # 0450-0513).

IP Phone licenses
3
Before an IVC will connect to an IP phone , the phone will require an available IVC port and the activation within the
system of a UIP license. When an IP phone is programmed in the system (Function 31), this consumes a license.
A new compatible ESI IP Phone, when connected to a LAN with an ESI Communications Server connected to it,
can be configured in setup mode. However, if a new extension number is assigned to the phone and there are
no local IP Phone licenses available, the phone will display LICENSE EXCEEDED (but play no prompt).
Important: The ESI-50 also requires purchase of IP/Esi-Link feature activation. For more information about this fee,
contact your ESI sales representative at 800 374-0422.

System capacities
System capacities
Important: Each ESI Presence Management RFID Reader (digital model) uses one digital station. The same is true for
each ESI Cellular Management Access Device.
Stations and trunks
The specifications shown below reflect maximum capacities and configurations. Not all of the station and trunk
maximums can be reached simultaneously.
Example: The ESI-100 can’t achieve 72 IP stations and 48 digital stations and 28 analog stations and 42 trunks
and 24 Esi-Link stations at the same time, because the system’s four-port-card limit makes such a
configuration impossible. The maximum configuration for this system is 108 ports, which could be achieved
by one DLC12 card (24 T1 trunks, 12 digital stations), two IVC 24Rs (48 IP stations), and one IVC EL24
(24 Esi-Link channels).

Site location
As with most electronic equipment, the environmental considerations for this site need to observe good common
sense. Provide a dry, clean, and accessible area.
Locate space in the telephone equipment room, which will provide easy connection to the termination blocks and
110 VAC power. The location should be no further than 1,000 feet from the farthest station.
0
0
Ambient room temperature must be 40 –80 (F.), and relative humidity no higher than 90%.
Notes: Do not place the equipment or run station cabling near high voltage electrical equipment or electrical lines
susceptible to high voltage surges from air conditioner compressors, etc.
Do not mount the equipment in a place that receives direct sunlight.
Mounting the cabinet(s)
If wall-mounted, the system and supporting components should be mounted to a half-inch (or thicker)
plywood backboard. To wall-mount a Base Cabinet or Expansion Cabinet, use the five tabs located at the rear of
the cabinet. The center tab has an enlarged hole and slot, to allow you to fix the screw on the wall before
hanging the cabinet onto the screw. Once you’ve done so, fasten the other screws into the four remaining holes
to finish securing the cabinet onto the wall.
To rack-mount a Base Cabinet or Expansion Cabinet, use the forward-facing screw holes on the sides of the
cabinet. Only two screws are needed per side (in fact, on most server racks, you can’t use all four screws on
each side).
Allow room for installation of the Expansion Cabinet either now or in the future; the Expansion Cabinet must be
installed directly below the Base Cabinet. Allow about two inches of clearance between the units, for cabling.
Attach the power transformer to the wall or rack, allowing sufficient length in both cords to reach the power
connector on the front side of the cabinet and to reach a UPS or a dedicated 110 VAC outlet.
ESI-1000, ESI-600, or ESI-200 typical installation
F.1
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
ESI-1000, ESI-600, ESI-200
Expansion Cabinet installation
To expand the system, you must add the Expansion Cabinet.
1. Use the expansion cable (supplied with the Expansion Cabinet) to connect the Input jack of the Expansion
Cabinet to the Expansion jack of the Base Cabinet.
2. ESI-1000 and ESI-600 only: Add additional Expansion Cabinets by using the expansion cable to connect
the Input jack of the next Expansion Cabinet to the Expansion jack of the previous cabinet.
3. Connect the ground of all units to the system ground. (See also “Grounding instructions,” page I.1)
4. Connect both power supplies to the standard power strip and then connect to the UPS.
Important: Always apply power to all cabinets simultaneously by using the power strip’s switch.
Do not apply power until all hardware connections have been made.
Port card installation
“CS” port cards
“CS” port cards should be inserted from left to right, without skipping any slots. (If there are any empty slots
between port cards, any cards to the right of the empty slot won’t be operational.)
1
Important: Although all “CS” cards are hot-swappable , ALWAYS power down the entire system (ALL cabinets)
BEFORE adding a new port card or permanently removing an existing port card. Also, be sure to
observe all proper procedures regarding the prevention of electrostatic discharge (ESD) when
performing the following procedures; otherwise, circuit boards may suffer damage.
1. On the desired slot in the cabinet, press the
release buttons on the top and bottom to
release the blank faceplate (Fig. 1).
2. Slide the port card into the card guides at the
top and bottom of the cabinet. Then, gently
push the port card into the cabinet (Fig. 2).
Fig. 1
3. When you feel some resistance, apply a
little more pressure until you feel the
port card’s edge connectors “click” into the
connector on the backplane. At this point,
the port card’s faceplate should be in contact
with the front of the cabinet.
4. Press the port card’s ejector handles into
the locking position (Fig. 2), so that they click
into place behind the release buttons.
Fig. 2
5. If you have no more cards to install at this time, power-up and program the system.
1
If using an “E2” port card in the ESI-200, ESI-600, or ESI-1000, you must also use a Hot-Swap Adapter (ESI part #5000-0462) for hot-swap operations.
F.2
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
ESI-1000, ESI-600, ESI-200
“E2” port cards
1
Each “E2” port card must be mounted onto a “Hot Swap” Port Card Adapter (ESI part # 5000-0462) prior
to being installed on the ESI Communication Server. Using “Hot Swap” Port Card Adapters allows you to
“hot-swap” port cards — i.e., replace them while the system is powered-up. However, installing a new port
card requires power-cycling the system to allow it to recognize the new card.
Important: While they are physically similar to the Port Card Adapters for the IVX X-Class system, “Hot-Swap” Port
Card Adapters are for use with only ESI Communications Servers. Similarly, you should use only “HotSwap” Port Card Adapters on ESI Communications Servers.
Wear a grounding strap and avoid unnecessary movement while handling the circuit boards and
Port Card Adapters.
To install the port card on the Port Card Adapter:
1. Place the port card’s Amphenol connector through the
opening of the Port Card Adapter’s faceplate, while
simultaneously aligning the port card’s screw holes
with the Port Card Adapter’s standoffs.
2. Screw the port card to the Port Card Adapter,
using the five provided Phillips-head machine screws.
3. Plug one end of the gray flat ribbon cable into the
Port Card Adapter connector.
4. Fold the gray flat cable as shown, and plug its other end
into the port card connector.
5. Install the assembled port card/Port Card Adapter into
the Base Cabinet, following the instructions under
“CS port cards,” page F.2.
1
If you’re installing an “E2” port card on an ESI-600 with a metal faceplate, you’ll need the “Hot Swap” Port Card Adapter with a metal faceplate
(ESI part # 5000-0385).
F.3
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
ESI-1000, ESI-600, ESI-200
About replacing port cards
Important: The main board, expansion board, and expansion cable cannot be removed or replaced under power. The
entire system must be powered-down when you install, remove, or replace any of these components.
Notes regarding hot-swapping:
When you replace a port card with a new one, the system will detect the port card type.
If the new port card’s type is different than that of the original port card, the newly installed port card won’t
come on-line.
If the new port card’s type is the same as that of the original port card, the system will automatically upload
software to the new port card. This upload process can take from four minutes to one hour, depending on
the type of port card and how busy the system is at the time.
Hot-swap is not supported during system boot.
If you’re hot-swapping identical cards between two slots, the upload process can take more than twice as
long as when you hot-swap one card at a time.
A port card that’s removed and inserted can’t be removed and inserted again within five minutes.
When replacing port cards, you must observe the following rules and limitations:
1. The replacement port card must be identical to the port card being removed (i.e.: an E2-612 must be
replaced with an E2-612; an ESI-DLC must be replaced with an ESI-DLC; etc.) — with the following
exception: because each “E2” card is functionally identical to its corresponding “CS” version, you could
(for example) remove an E2-684 and replace with a CS-684.
2. BEFORE you remove the port card:
•
The port card must be completely idle.
•
You must remove the cable from the front of the card (25-pair amphenol or Ethernet cable).
3. When removing the port card, follow the instructions under “Port card installation,” beginning on page F.2.
4. Before inserting a replacement port card into a slot, wait at least 15 seconds after removing the previous
port card.
5. When inserting a port card, don’t re-connect the cable to the front connector until the inserted card is on-line.

Mirrored Memory Module
Note: For full instructions on installing the M3, see its Installation Guide (ESI #0450-0912).
The Mirrored Memory Module (M3) ensures reliability and survivability of compatible ESI Communications Servers.
1
Using RAID -1 hard-disk drive technology, mirrored hard drives are intended to maintain system operation on
one disk drive in the event a hard drive fails. No system programming is required for the M3 to function.
Note: The ESI-1000 has all M3 components built-in, so the installation on the ESI-1000 of the hard-drive Memory
Modules (see “Procedure for two hard-drive Memory Modules (ESI-1000),” page F.5) enables M3 operation
on that system. M3 components are optional for the ESI-600 and ESI-200, and must be installed onto the
ESI Communications Server main board.
The M3 is a printed circuit assembly that supports two identically configured hard drives, mounted on standoffs.
It also has LED indicators, an audible alarm, alarm reset button, and an IDE cable connector for connection to
the main board.
For the mirroring operation to function properly on the ESI Communications Server, each hard drive must be
formatted and prepared by ESI.
Installing the M3 (ESI-600 • ESI-200)
The M3 kit consists of an M3 printed circuit board, hard drive mounting plate, faceplate, four (4) 1-inch
standoffs, 12 nylon spacers (washers), eight (8) screws, and an IDE cable for connection to the main board.
Refer to Fig. M3-1, below, to identify and locate where these components will be installed.
Memory Modules (hard drives, or HDDs) are obtained separately. Note that each hard drive must be an
ESI-formatted drive for the mirroring operation to function properly.
The M3 board itself includes LED indicators, cable connectors, an audible alarm, and alarm reset button.
Fig. M3-1: Mounting locations of M3 hardware
Important: If the M3 is being installed on a system that already has an existing Memory Module (hard disk drive),
the existing Memory Module must be installed in the M3 as the primary HDD (see Fig. M3-3). If it is
not, then the drive synchronization will not operate correctly, and the system will have to be initialized
and reprogrammed.

the system, you’ll need to power down the system and remove the
main board as explained in “Memory Module installation or
replacement” (beginning on page F.5).
M3 installation: Prepare the main board
1. If there is a hard drive already mounted on the main board, follow the instructions in the Memory
Module installation instructions (beginning on page F.5). Set aside the four screws and three of
the -inch standoffs; you’ll be using them later to secure the hard drive to the M3 mounting plate.
2. Unscrew the two screws holding the cover over the rectangular opening on the main board
faceplate. Set aside the two screws; you’ll be using them later to secure the M3 faceplate to the
main board faceplate.
3. Unplug the expansion cable from the main board (there is no need to remove the expansion cable
connector from the faceplate).
4. Set aside the main board.

the gray arrows marked “X” in Fig. M3-5);
and the other set aligns with the holes on
the ESI-600 main board (the white arrows
marked “ES” in Fig. M3-5).
1. Locate the four mounting holes on
the M3 board.
2. Using four of the screws and four of the
nylon washers that came with the M3 kit,
install the four 1-inch standoffs onto the
M3 board. The nylon washers should be
placed between the M3 board and the standoffs.
The standoffs should be mounted on the side of
the M3 board without the cable connectors.
Refer to Fig. M3-5.
Fig. M3-5: Mount standoffs to M3 board
3. Set aside the M3 board.
M3 installation: Assemble the hard drives to the

F.13
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
ESI-1000, ESI-600, ESI-200
Mirroring operation
On system power-up — e.g., at initial installation or whenever a drive is replaced — the M3 will first verify that
each drive is an ESI-formatted drive. If so, it then will transfer all data from the primary drive to the mirroring
drive. This process can take anywhere from a few minutes to one hour, depending on system activity, amount
of voice message storage, and configuration. System operation won’t be affected during the data transfer,
because this transfer will occur only when call-processing is making no disk drive access requests.
If a primary drive is replaced, data will be copied in the same fashion from the mirror drive to the new primary
drive. Again, the replacement drive must be a new, unprogrammed ESI drive. If it’s not, the system may
copy all data in the wrong direction — i.e., from the new (mostly empty) primary drive to the mirror drive!
Therefore, ESI recommends that the mirror drive be moved to the primary drive mounting position and the
new drive be mounted on the mirror drive mounting position.
Note: Once a hard drive has been copied, if it is removed and installed on a different system, the system will
automatically initialize the drive, erasing all data and voice messages.
Panel indicators and controls
The M3 panel indicators and Reset/Test button are used primarily for alarm and error
indication and troubleshooting. If the M3 is installed properly and the ESI Communications
Server is powered-on, the M3’s Power LED will always be lit. The following table describes
other M3 indications:

one second. This will turn on all of the M3’s LEDs and sound the audible alarm until you release the
Reset/Test button.

Port card installation
Adding or replacing port cards will require the system to be taken out of service
(the ESI-100 doesn’t support “hot-swapping” of its port cards).
Notes: The ESI-100 can use only E2 port cards (see “Port card options,” beginning on page A.4).
ALWAYS power down the system BEFORE adding or replacing any hardware. Also, be sure to
observe all proper procedures regarding the prevention of electrostatic discharge (ESD) when performing the
following procedures; otherwise, circuit boards may suffer damage.
Whenever you change the port card configuration, you must create a backup file for the new configuration
to be able to perform the Restore function later.
After removing the E2 port card from the box, install it as follows:
1. Unplug the power supply to the system.
2. Remove the locking screw (at the top of the cabinet, securing
the cover), and then remove the top cover by pressing down
the locking tab and pulling the top cover forward (Fig. PC-1).
Note: Port cards are added to an existing Base Cabinet in a “piggyback”
fashion — i.e., port card 2 (J1) plugs into port card 1 (J2), port card 3

If it’s going into the bottom slot, use five standoffs appropriately:
•
7/16-in. standoffs — Between the Base Cabinet and the
first card.
•
3/4-in. standoffs — Between the first and second card
in the Base Cabinet.
•
1-in. standoffs — Between port cards in the
Expansion Cabinet.
Use the screws that ship with the E2 port card to secure
the card to the standoffs. (You may have leftover screws.)
DON’T overtighten the standoffs; it will strip the
plastic bosses.
5. Put the top cover back on the cabinet, and then replace
the locking screw to secure the cover on the cabinet.
(In other words, perform the reverse of Step 2.)
6. To remove the E2 port card, follow steps 2–5 in reverse order.

Memory Module installation or replacement
Note: The Memory Module has a proprietary formatting scheme — do not attempt to install a non-ESI drive.
Contact ESI for a replacement Memory Module, if needed.
Adding or replacing the Memory Module will require that the ESI-50 be taken out of service.
All of the ESI-50’s configuration data and customer recordings are stored in the Memory Module. Replacing
it, therefore, requires re-programming and re-recording, unless you have previously performed a backup using ESI
System Programmer software. (Prompts stay intact, however.)
Note: Be sure to observe all proper procedures regarding the prevention of electrostatic discharge (ESD) when
performing the following procedures; otherwise, circuit boards may suffer damage.
Install the CompactFlash Memory Module
1. Open the lid of the cabinet (you must remove
the screw on the top that secures the lid).
2. Power down the system.
3. Plug the Memory Module into the J11 connector
on the main board (see diagram, right).
4. Secure the lid to the KSU.
Remove the CompactFlash
Memory Module (if replacing)
1. Open the lid of the cabinet (you must remove
the screw on the top that secures the lid).
2. Power down the system.

LED functions
The unit's various LEDs are designed to provide visual feedback as follows:
Power LED
The Power LED is located on the right side of the Base Cabinet, and is illuminated when power is being
applied to the system. This LED blinks periodically to indicate that the main processor is operational.
Port LEDs
The Port LEDs are located above their respective connectors on each installed port card. Each LED is
illuminated when any port on its associated port card is in use.
Note: Disconnecting a connector when its respective LED is lit will disconnect any of its ports that are in use.
Upon power-up, approximately five minutes are required for the system to configure. The Power and Port
LEDs will blink three times to indicate that the power-up sequence has been completed.

Note: When the LED on a DLC is . . .
• . . . blinking, the T1/PRI circuit is out of service.
• . . . not lit at all, the T1/PRI circuit is in service but is idle.
• . . . lit solidly, the T1/PRI circuit and/or a station on the card are in use.

Installation of card(s) for ESI Mobile Messaging and SIP trunking
The following instructions cover installation of the CS-SIP24, CS-SIP8, and CS-ASC on an ESI-100 or ESI-50.
Important: Each card is for ESI Communications Servers only (except ESI-50L) and requires a Hot-Swap Port Card
Adapter (five-pack, ESI # 5000-0462) if used on an ESI-1000, ESI-600, or ESI-200.
Before installing, verify that the system is running the appropriate system software. If it isn’t, download the
correct version from the ESI Resellers’ Web site and install it on the system.
ALWAYS power-down the entire system (all Cabinets) BEFORE adding or replacing any hardware.
Also, be sure to observe all proper procedures regarding the prevention of electrostatic discharge (ESD)
when performing the following procedures; otherwise, circuit boards may suffer damage.
Whenever you change the port card configuration, you must create a backup file for the new configuration
to be able to perform the Restore function later.
After removing the new card from the box, install it as follows:
1. Remove the locking screw (at the top of the cabinet, securing the cover),
and then remove the top cover by pressing down the locking tab and
pulling the top cover forward (Fig. C-1).
On each system, port cards are added in a “piggyback” fashion — i.e.,
port card 2 plugs into port card 1, port card 3 plugs into port card 2, etc.
(Neither the CS-SIP24 nor the CS-SIP8 nor the ASC may be in slot 1
on an ESI-100, and the ESI-50 main board contains a fixed 482 card.)
Use the following table and Fig. C-2 (below) to determine which
connectors to use in each case:

2. A cable is attached to the correct connector of the new card. Connect the cable’s other end to the correct
connector of the cabinet’s existing port card.
3. Secure the card to the cabinet (Fig. C-2).
If it’s going into the top slot, use five screws.
If it’s going into the bottom slot, use five standoffs appropriately:
• 7/16-in. standoffs — Between the ESI-100 Base Cabinet and
the first card.
• 3/4-in. standoffs — Between the first and second card in the
ESI-100 Base Cabinet.
• 1-in. standoffs — Between port cards in either the ESI-100
Expansion Cabinet or the ESI-50.
Use the screws that ship with the card to secure the new card to
the standoffs. (You may have leftover screws.) DON’T overtighten the
standoffs; it will strip the plastic bosses.
Figure C-2
4. Put the top cover back on the cabinet, and then replace the locking screw to secure the cover on the
cabinet. (In other words, perform the reverse of Step 1.)
5. To remove the new card, follow steps 1–4 in reverse order.

Grounding instructions
System grounding (supplemental ground) is as follows:
•
•
The conductor wires can be no smaller than the ungrounded branch-circuit supply conductors (usually 16gauge or higher).
Acceptable wire: bare or covered with green (or green-and-yellow-striped) jacket.
•
Conductors (and power receptacles) shall connect to earth ground at the service equipment (usually a cold
water pipe or copper ground rod).
•
The supplemental ground must: be used regardless of power cord ground, be connected to the ground lug
on the bottom of the cabinet, and retain ground connection when the power supply module is unplugged.
Connect the grounding lugs of all units to system ground
•
Note: ESI Communications Server lines are protected against a 10 KV surge only if the earth ground procedures
described above are followed.
Power
Each cabinet requires a 110 VAC outlet (if possible, a dedicated outlet). Use only the Class-2 power supply
module provided. A clean, isolated power source in conjunction with a UPS is STRONGLY recommended.
The following table shows the power consumption of each ESI Communications Server when fully loaded:

Refer to the particular UPS unit’s specifications to determine expected backup duration during a power outage.
Note: The remaining information under “UPS” comes from Technical Update #216.
Most people have heard about UPSs, but seem to think that there is just one kind of device that goes by that
name. In fact, there are several different major designs in use by today’s major UPS manufacturers. These
makers share much of the blame for confusing UPSs’ end users by, far too often, lumping different designs
under the “UPS” name.
(Continued)
I.1
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
External connections
UPSs can first be broken down into system types:
• Stand-by — A very simple design that affects power only when either a lag/brownout occurs below, or a
spike/surge occurs above, a certain threshold. When either occurs, the unit trips — i.e., goes into battery
mode. This "cleans" the voltage and helps to keep any load safe. Industry average "trip" times are 2–8
ms. No other filtration of AC power is performed.
• Line interactive — Constantly monitors inbound voltages, and uses special circuitry to boost low voltages
and clamp high voltages without having to use the batteries. Indeed, the batteries are used only if the
input voltage drops below acceptable levels (typically about 12% below normal), goes out completely or
rises to dangerous levels (typically about 14% above normal) at which components will be damaged if line
voltage is not removed. Industry average transfer time is 1–3 ms. (If voltage stays within its normal
window, this unit continues to pass voltage, unaltered, from the wall.)
• On-line (or full on-line) — Constantly filters the power and performs a function known as double
conversion (AC to DC to AC). This assures that the load — in this case, phone equipment — will receive
not only uninterrupted, true sine wave output but also the cleanest, steadiest power possible throughout
any foreseeable power disruptions or voltage irregularities. According to industry specs, it is not unusual
for these types of units to be able to regulate utility power, even when it drops to 27% below or rises to
33% above normal, all without using their batteries.
From this point, UPSs can be further broken down by inverter types, which determine output. These are:
• Square wave.
• Modified sine wave (or quasi sine wave).
• Sine wave.
Most devices with wall-mounted chargers, such as cordless drills or screwdrivers, can behave erratically —
sometimes not allowing the charge circuit to engage at all — when operating with modified sine or square
wave inverters. Small wall-based transformer-style power supplies, similar to those ESI phone systems use,
can experience overheating problems with modified sine or square wave outputs, which occur while some
UPSs are operating in battery mode. This overheating could eventually cause damage to the power supplies;
and, in time, the damage could cause a spike through the phone system — seriously damaging some of the
static-sensitive components inside the casing.
While the true sine wave UPS output power curve smoothly increases to its peak, then smoothly
decreases (allowing connected loads and equipment to operate the same as they would from utility supplied
wall power), the modified sine wave and square wave UPS output power curve will shoot straight up, level off
at peak voltage and then drop straight down. Additionally troublesome is that the modified sine wave sits at
zero voltage for a short period during the transition to or from batteries — which is the main difference
between it and the square wave output of some UPS. Please note that this short interval during which the
modified sine wave UPS sits at zero voltage can directly affect the transfer time of the UPS and could,
theoretically, be enough to cause the phone equipment to reset or even “freeze.”
Though it is hard to predict exactly when different ESI systems will have problems with modified sine wave or
square waveform UPSs (meaning during a power failure event or the recovery from one), it’s fair to assume
that a problem will eventually arise from the use of such UPSs. Therefore, ESI recommends that only true
sine wave output UPSs provide backup power to our phone systems and equipment.

External connections
MOH port
The MOH (messages-, or music-, on-hold) connector — located on the main board faceplate (ESI-1000, ESI1
600, and ESI-200) or the Base Cabinet’s right side (ESI-100) — is a standard /8″ monophonic mini-jack, used for
loading custom MOH recordings or for playing live music-on-hold from an external source such as a CD player.
Maintenance/SMDR serial port
The Maintenance/SMDR port is a standard DB9 female serial connector, located on the main board faceplate
(ESI-1000, ESI-600, and ESI-200) or the Base Cabinet’s right side (ESI-100 and ESI-50). Use a standard
shielded serial cable, DB9-to-DB9, for printer-to-computer; this is usually male-to-female.
Note: The maximum distance from the cabinet is 100 ft.
The output from the Maintenance/SMDR port is, 8 data bits, 1 stop bit, and no parity. The pinout is:
Data Transmit
Pin 2
Receive
Pin 3
Ground
Pin 5
To program this port, use Function 18 as described in the ESI Communications Servers Programming Manual
(ESI #0450-1050).
Range: Programmable for 300, 1,200, 2,400, 4,800, 9,600, 19,200, 38,400, 57,600, or 115,200 bps.
Default: 38.4K.
Maintenance
Connect a PC (such as a laptop) to the port to perform on-line programming and diagnostics. Also, the
system sends reports to this port.
SMDR
The ESI Communications Server continuously outputs real-time SMDR call records to the port.
Note: The system will buffer up to a specific limit of SMDR records (60,000 on the ESI-1000, or 1,000 on other
ESI Communications Servers) in non-volatile memory when the Maintenance/ SMDR serial port is in
use for programming or uploading (such as during use of ESI System Programmer). If the buffer
becomes full, the system will discard the oldest records.
For more information about the Maintenance/SMDR port, see “SMDR” in the ESI Communications Servers
Programming Manual (ESI #0450-1050).

External paging device connection
ESI-1000 and ESI-600, and ESI-50
On either of these systems, a dry-contact overhead-paging device can be connected
through the RJ-11 OH Paging connector, which is located on the front of the main board
faceplate just below the NSP’s Ethernet connector. Although this is a six-pin connector, only two pairs are
needed between the paging device and the connector:
• To pin-out the connector for normally open operation, connect the audio wires to pins 3 and 4 and the
control pair to pins 1 and 2.
• To pin-out the connector for normally closed operation, connect the audio wires to pins 3 and 4 and the
control pair to pins 5 and 6.
ESI-200 and ESI-100
1
A dry contact overhead-paging device can be connected to the system through the first port card's 66 block.
The overhead paging port is fixed (located on the main board) as code 599 for programming purposes and
user access. (See “Worksheet” wiring charts, page I.23.)
Audio connection
The audio pair is connected to the 66 block at terminal 33 and 34. The pair’s impedance is 600 ohms.
Note: The port doesn’t support talk-back paging (which requires a CO port), nor does it support CO ring
through the port.
Dry-contact control
The manner in which the dry-contact pair is punched down on the 66 block sets the pair as normally open
(sending a page to the port will close the contacts) or normally closed (sending a page to the port will open
the contacts).
Connect the dry-contact pair of the device to the ESI Communications Server as follows:
•
•
Terminals 35 and 36 to provide normally open operation;
or
Terminals 36 and 38 to provide normally closed operation.
The port can be used with zone paging units.
Note: ESI doesn’t recommend the use of paging contacts for door-unlocking mechanisms.
Programming
To access the overhead paging port, assign feature code 5 9 9 to a programmable feature key.
Amphenol cable connections
Connect a standard 66 or 110 block to each digital port card by using a male 50-pin amphenol cable to each port
card female connector located on the cabinet. On the ESI-100 or ESI-50, the connector closest to the wall is the
first card; on other ESI Communications Servers, the connector in the leftmost slot is the first card.
1
If an IVC is installed in slot 1 on the ESI-1000, ESI-600, or ESI-200, the audio connection and dry-contact control connect via the second port card.
(On an ESI-200, a non-IVC card must be in slot 1 or 2. On an ESI-100, a non-IVC card must be in slot 1. On an ESI-50, an IVC is built-in and
considered to be port card 2.)

CO line connection
Note: For greatest simplicity, this section mentions each port card without the use of an “ESI,” “E2-,“ or “CS-“
prefix, as cards otherwise are functionally identical — e.g., we refer to an E2-684 or CS-684 as just a “684.”
Local loop
An ESI Communication Server’s advanced CO line circuitry provides for open loop detection and the
system’s built-in Caller ID interface. Loop start lines are connected via the last 6 pairs on each 66 block on the
612 and 684 cards.
Note: Observe correct order of connection to preserve proper rotary hunting of the CO lines.
T1/PRI
For T1 or PRI applications (only PRI on the ESI-50; it doesn’t support T1), an ESI Communications Server
1
can use a compatible digital line card (DLC) :
• ESI-1000, ESI-600, ESI-200, ESI-100 — DLC and DLC12, each for either T1 or PRI.
• ESI-50 — DLC82 for only PRI.
Depending on how you configure it, each supports either (a.) a single T1 circuit at 24 DS0 channels or (b.) a
PRI circuit supporting 23 “B” (bearer) channels and one “D” (data link) channel. The DLC12 and DLC82 each
also support 12 digital stations. The T1 or PRI line is connected via the last two pairs of the industry-standard
50-pin amphenol cable connector on the front of the DLC.
Each ESI Communications Server has a different maximum number of system-wide DLCs (see “Port card
options,” page A.4). Partial T1 or PRI applications are supported through line programming.
Each DLC has built-in CSU functionality. The integrated CSU can be enabled or disabled via system
2
programming . The following functionality is provided: line, payload, DTE and none (normal operation)
loopback modes with the ability to respond back controlled via system programming; alarm conditions, and
both ANSI T1.403 and TR 54016 performance messages for ESF only.
Important: On the ESI-50, the DLC82 may be installed in only slot 2.
If you’re installing more than one T1 or PRI, the DLC in the lowest number slot will synchronize (“slave”)
the system with the public network. The system will synchronize to only one clock source. Therefore, ESI
strongly recommends that the first DLC in the system be connected to the T1 or PRI that’s connected
either to the local CO or the nationwide long-distance provider, either of which typically will provide veryhigh-accuracy clocking (Strata 3). The DLC doesn’t provide master or sub-master clocking for privatenetwork T1 spans.

When working with a T1 line , the DLC or DLC12 supports these trunk types:
• Loop start
• Ground start
• E&M (including E&M–DID/DNIS/ANI) — When an E&M trunk is selected, the choices for outgoing
signaling type are immediate start, wink start and dial tone start; and the incoming signaling type choices
are immediate start and wink start. The E&M trunk can be set for 2-way traffic, inbound traffic only or
outbound traffic only.
The DID and DNIS/ANI translation table allows the translation of DID/DNIS digits to an ID, mailbox, extension
or department. See below for the number of entries that can be programmed in the table:

There is also an entry for exceptions in the table. This allows reroutes of any DID/DNIS calls that aren’t
programmed or detected to an ID, mailbox, extension or department and defaults to the operator.
The card supports the following framing format and line coding:
•
•
•
•
ESF/B8ZS (default)
SF(D4)/AMI
ESF/AMI
SF/B8ZS
Line compensation (or line build-out) is provided as necessary between the CSU or Smart Jack™ and the
ESI Communications Server. There won’t be any support for pulse dialing; all incoming dialing will default to
DTMF digits.
When working with a PRI line, the DLC (i.e., the DLC, DLC12, or DLC82) supports these switch protocols:
•
•
•
•
National-NI2 (default)
Nortel-DMS100
AT&T/Lucent-5ESS
Siemens-EWSD
DID for the PRI is an enable/disable field. When DID is enabled, the PRI pilot table becomes active and works
in combination with the DID tables.
SIP trunks
For SIP trunking applications, an ESI Communications Server must use a compatible SIP24 or SIP8 card.
Each ESI Communications Server has a different maximum number of system-wide SIP24s or SIP8s (see
“Port card options,” page A.4). Partial SIP applications are supported through line programming.
Supported SIP trunks are:
• Broadvox ND
• Broadvox NS

ESI Cellular Management Access Devices
The digital station wiring is not polarity-sensitive. Only one phone can be connected per digital port.
The station line voltage is 33 VDC.
For proper operation, the combined length of
feed cables, backbone cabling, cross-connect,
and station cable must not exceed 1000 feet
(304 meters) for digital stations. Station line cord
length should not exceed 12 feet (note that this is
the length of the line cord provided with
each ESI desktop phone).
Each digital station can have no more than two
cross-connects or splices in the cable distribution.
Cable construction, termination blocks, and
modular jacks must meet at minimum Category 3
cabling requirements. Additional splices or
terminations will further reduce the maximum
cable length at which the digital station will operate reliably.
Because of potential interference caused by electrical noise, ESI strongly
recommends against distribution of digital stations with analog stations, T1 circuits, PRI circuits, or other
circuits in the same cable binder or station run.

The analog ports do not require that tip-and-ring polarity be observed. The analog ports can be used for
2500-type sets or for devices such as fax machines, modems, etc., that can be connected via a normal
tip-and-ring pair. Each analog port will support only a single analog device. (For total analog port capacity on
each ESI Communications Server, see “System capacities,” page D.1.)
All analog ports provide Type I Caller ID information (Caller ID with call waiting is not supported).

Installing ESI’s Cordless Handsets
Note: Except where noted, this section applies to both the ESI Cordless Handset II and original ESI Cordless
Handset models.
Each ESI Cordless Handset comes with:
•
A charger/cradle to charge the Handset.
•
An AC adapter for use with only the charger.
•
A base station to provide a digital interface between the ESI phone system and ESI Cordless Handset.
This base station needs no AC power: if the Cordless Handset is digital, the base station is line-powered;
if the Cordless Handset is IP, the base station uses Power over Ethernet (PoE).
Wall-mount(s), a belt clip, and a Quick Reference Guide.
•
Each ESI Cordless Handset is keyed to only one base station and takes up one port (digital or IP) on a port card.
Base station installation
Due to each site’s unique characteristics, the range and distance information we’ll provide herein is
only approximate.
Characteristics that positively affect performance:
• The base station should be installed so it has a clear line-of-sight with the Cordless Handset.
• The base station antenna should always be pointed in its uppermost vertical position.
Characteristics that negatively affect performance:
• Large amounts of metal shelving (such as in manufacturing or warehouse areas).
• Close proximity to (within one mile of) a radio tower.
• Concrete walls that divide spaces where Cordless Handsets are used (assuming the base stations are in
one location).
Don’t install the base station:
• Close to a wall with metal studs.
• On a metal wall.
• Next to a device that emits RFI or EMI1 — e.g., a television, radio, computer, computer printer,
fluorescent light fixture, or fax machine.
• Next to any other 900 MHz device — e.g., a hand-held inventory control device.
• In a ceiling that has foil-backed insulation.
• Behind doors that typically are closed, tinted windows, one-way glass, or other areas that limit or
cut off transmission to the Cordless Handset.
Base stations must be installed at least 10 feet apart, regardless of whether the base station is for the
small-model or large-model Cordless Handset. Don’t install more than six base stations in one area
(such as a network room). Choose a location at least 30 feet away if more than six base stations are needed
in a building.
(Continued)

RFI is radio frequency interference. EMI is electromagnetic interference.
I.10
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
External connections
A Digital Cordless Handset base station requires only a line cord to the phone system; AC power isn’t
needed because the base station receives power from the phone system via the line cord.
An IP Cordless Handset base station receives PoE. If PoE
isn’t already being supplied, you’ll need to install the
separately purchased PoE adapter (sold in five-packs
as ESI part # 5000-0437). The diagram at right shows the
necessary connections.
Note: If the PoE equipment plugs into AC outlets
and a power failure occurs, all IP Cordless
Handsets on the system will be unable to
originate or receive phone calls. Therefore,
either: (a.) use an appropriately sized
uninterruptible power supply (UPS) to
power all the IP equipment (base station,
PoE adapter, router, etc.) involved in
making phone calls or (b.) have a
traditional POTS (“plain old telephone
service”) phone available for originating
and receiving analog CO calls.
Once the base stations are installed and the Cordless Handsets charged:
• Cordless Handset II — The Cordless Handset II will auto-seek an available channel.
• Original Cordless Handset — Change each Handset’s channel by pressing its CH key. Each Handset
should have its own channel. There are 30 available channels on the small Cordless Handset and 10
on the large Cordless Handset.
Note: Feedback may result if the Cordless Handset is within three inches of an ESI desktop phone.
ESI Cordless Handset II Repeater
The optional ESI Cordless Handset II Repeater extends the coverage area of the ESI Cordless Handset II in
all directions, including up and down.
If Repeaters are installed so their coverage area overlaps that of the base station, the base station can hand
off calls to the Repeaters as the user moves from one coverage area to another. When it’s connected to a
Repeater, the ESI Cordless Handset II operates exactly as it does when connected to its base station, and
the handoff from the base station to the Repeater occurs seamlessly without disturbing the end user, even
during an active call.
Each ESI Cordless Handset II base station supports up to six repeaters, regardless of configuration.
• Each Repeater supports up to two direct connections to other Repeaters.
• No Repeater can be more than three connections — or hops — from the base station.
All Repeaters, regardless of configuration, must be registered to the base station.
Repeaters that are registered directly to a base
station (left), do not require use of the optional
Repeater Configurator Kit. These Repeaters
can be installed using automatic configuration.
However, Repeaters registered to the base
station through another Repeater (one
example shown, right) do require use of the
Repeater Configurator Kit.
For detailed information on installing Repeaters, refer to the ESI Cordless Handset II
Repeater Installation Manual (ESI # 0450-1248).
I.11
ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual

Repeater installation notes
To achieve optimum operation from your ESI Cordless Handset II Repeater:
•
Place the Repeater at least six feet off the ground so it has a clear line-of-sight.
•
Make sure the Repeater has good reception from the base station (or Repeater to which it is
daisy-chained).
Make sure the Repeater location is close to a standard 120 VAC power outlet.
•
•
Never install electrical cords across traffic areas where they can cause a tripping hazard (additionally,
such cords, if damaged, may create fire or electrical hazards).
•
Allow at least 35 feet between Repeaters.
If you install Repeaters across multiple floors, be sure to allow 35 feet vertically, too.
•
Install the Repeater away from sources of electrical interference. Examples include audio systems,
office equipment, and microwave ovens.
•
Install the Repeater away from heat sources and direct sunlight.
•
Install the Repeater away from items that can interfere with radio signals. Examples include metal
doors, thick walls, niches, and cupboards.
In case of trouble
If you have followed the guidelines described herein and still encounter problems with ESI Cordless Handsets,
please call ESI Technical Support at 800 491-3609 or e-mail to [email protected]. When contacting
ESI Technical Support, be sure to have as much of the following site and usage information as possible:
• Square footage of the building.
• Layout of building/offices, and locations of base stations and repeaters. This can be a hand-drawn
diagram with locations of base stations (you can fax it to ESI at 972 422-9705; be sure to indicate that it
goes to Technical Support). The objective is to give the ESI technician an idea of the site’s layout.
• Number of Cordless Handsets, whether they are Cordless Handsets II or original Cordless Handsets, and
how many are of each type (digital, Local IP, or Remote IP).
• How the troublesome Cordless Handset is being used. For example, is it used by a supervisor who travels
the entire area of the building many times per day, or by an administrative assistant to go a short distance
from an office to a copy room?
• Where the problem occurs — e.g., if a Cordless Handset cuts in and out when used in a certain area of
the building.

ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
Ordering and installing PRI circuits
Ordering and installing PRI circuits
This section addresses considerations to make when ordering and installing ISDN PRI circuits on PRI-ready ESI
Communications Servers [except ESI-50L].
When ordering and provisioning such circuits, you must correctly define certain parameters in order for the PRI
to function correctly. This section is a template for a PRI order form you can use to order PRI circuits that — if
provisioned according to the order form — will be fully compatible with PRI-ready ESI systems.
PRI configuration description
• Agent company — Name of the company that’s ordering the PRI on behalf of the customer.
• Contact — The individual who’s placing the PRI order.
• Address — Address of the agent company.
• Customer name — The name of the end user’s company.
• Circuit ID — The circuit number (or sequence of characters and numbers) that the service provider uses to
identify the PRI circuit. This is used to identify the PRI circuit when troubleshooting or reporting trouble.
• Support phone number — The service provider’s customer service phone number.
• PRI line protocol — The ISDN protocol offered by the service provider. ESI strongly recommends using the
NI-2 (National ISDN-2) protocol.
• Framing and line encoding — You must use ESF (extended super frame) framing and B8ZS (binary eightzero substitution) encoding.
• Pilot/DID numbers — When you order a PRI line, you can separate its 23 channels into one or more “hunt”
groups, each of which has its own main, or pilot, number. A PRI can also support DID (direct inward dialing)
numbers, which typically arew assigned to individual extensions or departments. For example, an ESI-100 can
support up to 10 pilot numbers and up to 300 DID numbers. When you program a pilot number in a PRIcompatible ESI system (by using Installer Function 255), you must enter the maximum number of PRI channels
(one to 23) that can be used for the pilot number hunt group. For example:

Total pilot number channels: 23
Important: The total number of PRI pilot number channels assigned cannot exceed 23; otherwise, intermittent
problems may result.
• Glare resolution — Must be normal (also called standard); i.e.,. cannot be yielding.
Glare is the condition wherein an outgoing call and an incoming call attempt to seize the same circuit at the
same time. On loop-start analog lines, this usually causes the two callers to be connected, because loop-start
lines do not manage glare resolution. However, PRi trunks utilize a standard glare resolution protocol, which
must be set up correctly on both the service provider’s switch and the ESI system. Part of glare resolution
defines what the CO would do with a call if glare is detected; and the ESi system will block an outgoing call if,
indeed, glare is detected. This frees up the channel so that the service provider’s incoming call rings through.
Because of this, the service provider’s switch must be programmed for normal glare resolution.
• Incoming hunt — Must be ascending.
Another portion of glare resolution requires specifying to the CO in which direction incoming calls should hunt.
To minimize glare, ESI systems perform either an ascending incoming hunt (from channel 1 to channel 23) or
a descending outgoing hunt (from channel 23 to channel 1). When ordering the PRI, you must make the
service provider aware of this requirement.
• ISDN bearer capabilities — This is the supported PRI feature set. Currently, ESI systems support only 56K
voice (CSV). This feature set also supports fax and modem transmissions.

ESI Communications Servers Hardware Installation Manual
Ordering and installing PRI circuits
• Service termination — ESI recommends that the PRI circuit be terminated on an eight-pin RJ-68 (i.e., “Smart
Jack”). If an RJ-68 isn’t available, you may use an eight-pin RJ-48 jack. If you use an external CSU (channel
service unit), be sure to turn off the CSU in the ESI system.
Important: ESI recommends that, when you connect a cable between the T1/PRI and a CSU or Smart Jack, you
use Category 5 (or better) twisted-pair cable with a length of at least six feet.
• Span type — Use DSX-1 when the cable length to a repeater is less than 655 feet (“short-haul”). [A CSU,
multiplexer, or Smart Jack is considered a repeater.] Use DS-1 for longer distances to a repeater. (See next
item, “Line build-out.”)
• Line build-out (LBO) — Settings to compensate for distance to nearest repeater.
ESI systems support both “short-haul” and “long-haul” (attention settings up to -22.5 dB). Although ESI
systems can support both types of LBO, “short-haul” settings are typically used.
[See next page for sample of order form template. On the ESI Resellers’ site’s tech support page
(www.esi-estech.com/Resellers/tech), you can download a PDF version — listed as Technical Update #176,
from which this section is derived — that can be filled out on a PC using Adobe Reader.]
